Happy Monday!
Yesterday was Father's Day and Mason and I did lots of things to make Dave's day special. We let (even encouraged him) to sleep in, set him up with his favorite breakfast of chicken fried steak, country potatoes and biscuits & gravy, in addition to cards and balloons. My favorite part of the day was that he took a nap, he has been working so hard that I know his body and spirit needs the rest.
We have plans today to venture out for our next installment of Park Pass & a Picnic and Mason is totally excited that Dave is coming along. We realized in post production that the spot Mason and I visited, the Oregon Creek Day Use area was not the spot we were actually looking for, so we plan to revisit that today and see if we can find the granite slab water slides! But the park part of our adventure today is Malakoff Diggins State Park, this state park is preserving the largest hydraulic mining site in CA, this will not only be fun, it will be educational! If you haven't seen our first few videos, I'll post them at the end of this post and you can always go to MasonPartak.com to see them as well. I edited these first few videos, but I think Mason is going to take over with this one, so let's see what he's learned in the technical department.
I'm going to go pack our picnic and we are heading out, one of the things we are learning is that it is better to get an early start, not only to beat any crowds, but we give ourselves a cushion just in case we come across some gem we didn't expect - more time to explore! Have a great Monday and take time to be kind, smile, say a pleasant hello to someone you don't know, or send a text to someone you haven't heard from in some time. Big smiles and lots of love! Kathy
